Usually due to a borrower making a minimum payment on an Adjustable Rate Mortgage during a period when the rate fluctuates to a high enough point that the minimum payment does not cover all of the interest. | | | | | NEIGHBOURHOOD | A subsection of a municipality that has been designated by a developer, economic forces or physical formations. | | | | | NEIGHBOURHOOD LIFECYCLE | The evolution of neighborhood use and demographics over time.

You should inquire whether this means there are no "lender" costs associated with the loan, or if it also covers the other costs you would normally have in a purchase or refinance transactions, such as title insurance, escrow fees, settlement fees, appraisal, recording fees, notary fees, and others. These are fees and costs which may be associated with buying a home or obtaining a loan, but not charged directly by the lender. Keep in mind that, like a "no-point" loan, the interest rate will be higher than if you obtain a loan that has costs associated with it. | | | | | NO POINT LOAN | A loan with no "points". The interest rate on such a loan will be higher than a loan with points paid.
